RE: [Quickfix-developers] Required Tag missing - 58

Looks like an error in the DataDictionary for the Trade Capture Report
Request Ack (AQ)
=20
In FIX44.xml Instrument is given as a required component - it should be
optional as per the Trade Capture Report Request (AD)
=20
Shankar, you'll have to edit this yourself and recompile QuickFIX - or
wait for one of the developers to do an update.

	Toby,

	How do you make the code not require an instrument block ?
thanks, I looked around, anyhelp appreciated.

	Sorry yes, I got to and from confused. Although, it very much
looks like the sort of message I would expect you to be receiving given
your code.=20

	=20

	You're still using setField, just use set instead to keep things
as type safe as possible.=20

	=20

	The Instrument block of a TCRR Ack (Msg AQ) is not a required
part for that message, although if you are getting an instrument block
then the symbol is a required part of it. Looks like you're expecting to
receive one, and the counterparty isn't sending it. Either get the
counterparty to send, or change your code to not require an Instrument
block.

	=20

	If you are receiving a TCRR Ack (AQ) then the counterparty must
be seeing your request or they wouldn't have replied.=20

	=20

	Maybe you should run a network trace to see exactly what's being
sent in and out, and then double check that all required fields are
being sent each way. Also, if you have further problems please post a
copy of your logs.

		Thanks, I had no intention of  creating a Generic
message object, sorry about that, hence the code should have looked like

		=20

		private void application_Logon(object sender,
FIXSessionIDEventArgs e)

		            {

		                  QuickFix44.TradeCaptureReportRequest
myTCRreport =3D new  QuickFix44.TradeCaptureReportRequest();

		                   myTCRreport.setField(new
QuickFix.SubscriptionRequestType('1'));

		                   myTCRreport.setField(new
QuickFix.TradeRequestType(1));

		                   myTCRreport.setField(new
QuickFix.TradeRequestID("abc101"));

		                   myTCRreport.setField(new
QuickFix.Text("TCR"));

		                 =20

		                 =20

=09
Session.sendToTarget(myTCRreport,e.SessionID);

		=20

		            }

		Also, looking up the quick doc, toAdmin - is actually
what my server is sending out to the counterparty., it is 55 which is
SYMBOL.

		Also the counterparty says he hasn't seen any report
request come in from me.

		=20

		=20

		58=3DRequired tag missing

		371=3D55

		372=3DAQ

		373=3D1

		10=3D182

		First of all, you are misinterpreting the toAdmin
message. This is a response to you, from the other server, with a
MsgType (tag 35) of 3 - a reject message. The field 58 is a text field
telling you why your message was rejected - it was missing a required
tag. Field 371, RefTagId, is saying that the missing tag was tag 35.
This isn't good, because tag 35 is the message type! So, you were
sending a message without setting the msgType...now to look at why...

		=20

		If you look at your code, you're actually sending a
QuickFix.Message object. This is a generic message object, and you're
never telling it what type of FIX message it is meant to be.  You're
creating the report-type message and then not doing anything with it at
the moment. You should really use the typesafe set methods  as described
in the docs I pointed at earlier, not the setField method.
(http://www.quickfixengine.org/quickfix/doc/html/sending_messages.html).
Whilst both work, the recommended method is recommended for good reasons
- including the fact that it sets the msgType and other header fields
for you :)

		=20

		Thus:

		=20

		QuickFix44.TradeCaptureReportRequest myTCRreport =3D new
QuickFix44.TradeCaptureReportRequest();

		                  myTCRreport.set(new
QuickFix.SubscriptionRequestType('1'));

		                  myTCRreport.set(new
QuickFix.TradeRequestType(1));

		                  myTCRreport.set(new
QuickFix.TradeRequestID("abc101"));

		                  myTCRreport.set(new
QuickFix.Text("TCR"));

		                 =20

		                  Session.sendToTarget(msg,e.SessionID);

		=20

		=20

		As a minor aside, perhaps its worth adding a check in
the QuickFIX code to catch people trying to send messages formed from
the base class and with no specific type.

		=20
